Doctor of Philosophy Thesis in Military Informatics : Lethal Autonomy of Weapons is Designed and/or Recessive

My original
contribution to knowledge is : Any weapon that exhibits intended
and/or untended lethal autonomy in targeting and interdiction –
does so by way of design and/or recessive flaw(s) in its systems of
control – any such weapon is capable of war-fighting and other
battle-space interaction in a manner that its Human Commander does
not anticipate. A lethal autonomous weapons is therefore
independently capable of exhibiting positive or negative recessive
norms of targeting in its perceptions of Discrimination between
Civilian and Military Objects, Proportionality of Methods and
Outcomes, Feasible Precaution before interdiction and its underlying
Concepts of Humanity. This marks the completion of an Open PhD (
#openphd ) project done in sui generis form.
